A1 Cardone Parts

It all started with a malfunctioning windshield wiper motor. After driving through a rain storm with suboptimal windshield wipers, Michael Cardone Sr. found himself looking for an inexpensive alternative. He quickly learned there were no remanufactured parts available on the market. Determined to provide a wider opportunity to other people, Michael Cardone Sr. and his son Michael Cardone Jr. founded A1 Cardone in 1970.

In the beginning, their first and only product was windshield wiper motors but, as time advanced, the business expanded, inventory grew, and more parts became available. Eventually, the business of remanufacturing auto parts turned into its own industry with A1 Cardone at the forefront.

So, how exactly does A1 Cardone remanufacture parts? Well first, they don’t just replace the broken components. They start by completely disassembling each of the worn parts (also known as a “core”). Then, they thoroughly clean and inspect each and every component. Via reverse engineering, A1 Cardone’s engineers then pinpoint what the weaknesses are in the designs of the original equipment by taking a hard look at the areas that commonly wear out. They then incorporate those learnings, and the fixes that arise, into their renewal process as needed. The result? Dependable products customers can count on. In addition to its remanufactured business, Cardone also expanded into the production of new parts, which it sells under its Cardone Select brand. Since they spend so much figuring out why original equipment fails and remanufacturing parts based on those examinations, it is only natural that they began manufacturing their own new parts!

Today, Cardone Industries is the largest private company in the world that remanufactures auto parts for the automotive aftermarket. Some of their products include axles, caliper brackets, window motors, steering gear boxes, and transfer case shift motors. By repairing and restoring parts, Cardone not only offers an affordable price but provides quality as well. They have over 80 product lines and thousands of products, and aim to deliver OEM quality at a cheaper price.
